*Listen to Alien by Rema*

~•~

It was a Friday morning and Sofia had been trying to reach out to lei but it wasn't going through, she also tried visiting a couple of times but was told the same thing so she stopped going there today was her off and she wasn't in the best of moods, she took a cab to the mall as she has ran out of few necessary supplements.

She strolled round the mall picking everything she needs when she saw a familiar figure, it was Mr Lei she quickly ran towards him as she called to him

"Mr lei."

Lei was shocked to see her here but remained calm "Hey Sofia how are you?."

"I'm fine Lei I was a bit worried these days you barely checked up or even answer my call did I do anything wrong?."

"No miss Sofia."

Miss? that was strange but she waved it off and continued with her most pressing concern "What happened then y-."

"Lei." Sofia heard a female voice call out to lei, she turned to see who it was and to her surprise there a tall, slender looking lady with healthy hair and white teeth smiled as she called to lei seeing Sofia the lady walked towards Lei and held onto his hand "Who's she Lei."

"Umm ... this is one of my patients miss Sofia." Lei said he wasn't too proud to put it that way since they have shared a night together but it was partly true she was his patient he never asked or suggest a romantic relationship between them she took the lead and he just followed though that wasn't professional but he couldn't defeat the human urges as she was a pretty woman with good curves.

Sofia stared blankly as she didn't understand what just happened to her, she had just meet lei and his fiance, a lady she couldn't even match up to, a classic lady she recalled how arkward it had been just standing next to her she recalled.....

"Umm miss Sofia meet my fiance Sang che."

"Oh..umm nice meeting you miss che." Sofia said as she was dumb founded.

"Thanks dear actually am a Mrs now cause he proposed and am also pregnant." she smiled brightly as she had genuine feelings.

"Oh congratulations Mrs." Sofia said

"Thanks."Sang che smiled

"I should get going now." Sofia excused herself.

"Alright Dr hope to see you at the wedding." she waved happily as she and lei left

Sofia felt useless at this point she didn't know what to say or what to do, she couldn't say she had been fooled as she was the one who willingly got indulged with him, if he had respected her a bit he would have at least gave her an explanation he must have really seen her as cheap. Sofia went home and tried to remain calm but couldn't she began to cry out loud in the shower, her life was really a mess she wasn't good enough for any man she felt disrespected, she got out the shower she picked up her phone and dialled a number but the call was declined, she called few more times but got the same results so she dressed up and headed to the Lu's cooperation, when she arrived at the gate she stated her reason for visiting but she was declined assess into the building she felt a bit bad for even trying to come here to attain sympathy, after making a fool of herself on her way out she meet adria who happened to be coming into the company.

"Hey." Sofia called out to adria

"Oh hello." adria smiled gently at Sofia

"Been a while."

"Well not really, what are you doing here?."

"I have a file I want to take inside but the security won't let me." Sofia lied.

"Well that's because this is a company and safety comes first."

"Ohk."

"Where are the files, hand them over to me let me help you get them in and someone will bring it out to you."

"Oh no, no the files are inside the company already."

Adria stared at her for a while "Alright I'll help you get them out." she said as she walked.

"Wait adria."

"Hmm."

"I...I."

"You don't have any file to retrieve or send out Sofia your lying to my face why do you despise me this much?." adria smiled painfully.

"No."

"Then why because I'm Asachi's friend?."

"No.....adria please just help me get in this is urgent."

"Alright it's fine." Adria said as they both went in, arriving at the entrance Adria's attention was called immediately "Hey man the executive director wants to see you."

"Alright." she turned to Sofia who quickly said "Don't worry is fine I could find my way around thank you."

"Oh alright." Adria said as she thought how ungrateful few people could be.

Sofia made her way to Asachi's office and knocked when there was a reply from inside she came in. Asachi looked up to see who it was "Wha- .... Sofia."

"Hey asachi." and with that she began to cry.

"W..what's wrong Sofia? why are you crying?." Asachi said as he stared at Sofia with pity she was thin now and had dark circles like someone who hasn't had enough rest.

Sofia made her way to Asachi's arm as she cried loudly, Asachi who was really confused and worried he pat her in a soothing manner to help ease the pain "Is ok Sofie it's fine your here now so your safe shhhh it fine."

Sofia stared at him with tears in her eyes "I made a fool of myself Asachi I...I."

"Shh it's ok don't cry we all make mistakes calm down what happened did you get fired what's wrong?."

Sofia was to ashamed to say it as she didn't know how asachi was going to take it even though they weren't together anymore she still felt he would be hurt regardless "I don't know how to explain it Asachi."

"It's fine your going to be ok."he said as he hugged her.

Sofia saw adria approaching from the glass she was approaching Asachi's office feeling aggravated as she blamed her for everything that happened she pulled asachi in for a kiss.

Adria opened the door "Hey ash there's...." immediately she saw Sofia and asachi kissing she was a bit surprised and worried at the same time "Oh..oh my God I'm sorry, sorry I'll come back later." with that she left.

"Wait adria." asachi said as he pushed Sofia away when adria didn't answer he turned to Sofia "What was that for?."

"I'm, I'm sorry I just got cut up in my emotions I'm really sorry."

Asachi felt bad "This wasn't supposed to happen why the hell did you even come here!." he yeild as he paced round the room.

"I'm really sorry if you want I could talk to her and tell her it wasn't what she thought."

"No it's fine I'll talk to her myself, I think you need to leave now."

"But."

"Please." Asachi said as he opened the door for her to leave, Sofia picked up her bag and left but she felt better, she stopped crying and made a decision to get Asachi back.

Asachi felt bad as he didn't know how to explain himself or what to even do, he went to her office but she wasn't there so he waited.

"Hey ash." adria smiled as she entered her office "Someone got his girl back huh."

"Adria."

"Oh please don't try to act like you didn't know or you both didn't kiss just now." Adria stared at him "I'm just a bit disappointed that you guys got back together and didn't even bother to inform me about it you both kept me in the dark."

"Adria it's not what you think I didn't even-."

"It's fine ash I'm your biggest supporter have you forgotten, it's a good thing we should probably celebrate you know."

"Adria."

"Yeah."

"Can you listen."

"What do you want to say."

"I know you are angry."

"Why would I be angry ash, we are just friends nothing else so you don't necessarily have to tell me what you do or decide to do, you guys are back together and am happy for you guys." she said as they stared at each other for a while before Adria changed the conversation "Well earlier Mrs So yin had issues with a file and called to me, I was able to clear some misconception but your signature will be needed in other to make those changes she had intentionally cut him off as she wasn't ready for this explanation.

"Oh ok." he said as he stared at her

"Well...go sign them." she said as he kept sitting there.

Asachi felt disappointed that Adria made such statement and didn't even want to hear him out the universe was really against him.
